If it's what you want, you could use PlotRangePadding:

Plot[x^2, {x, 0, 8},
 Frame -> True,
 GridLines -> Automatic,
 PlotRangePadding -> 0]

Hello everyone,

I need help in tweaking the appearance of a graph.  I'd like axes shown on
all four sides of a 2D plot.  This can be done by including a frame as in
the following.

	Plot[x^2, {x, 0, 8},
		 Frame -> True,
		 GridLines -> Automatic,
 		AxesOrigin -> {0, 0}]

The problem with this approach for my particular purpose, however, is that
the origin of the graph and the lower-left corner of the frame are not
coincident.  The origin (0, 0) is set in and appears at the first tick on
the horizontal and vertical axis.  Likewise, the outermost point, (8, 64) in
my example here, is not coincident with the top-right corner of the frame.
Is there any way that I can get a frame to lie on top of the axes?  

Much appreciated,

Gregory
